Great 16 ohm Full Range loudspeakers


I am considering getting a second set of monoblocks--Atma-sphere MA-1 140 watt blocks, and am interested in learning about the available 16 ohm loudspeakers out there. I would want something that is full range (currently using JM Lab Alto Utopias).

The Audiokinesis Dream Makers are 16 ohm and the Jazz Module 12 ohm. Both are OTL friendly. The MA-1 amps could easily power either speaker.
The MA-1 is very comfortable with 8 ohm speakers and a good number of 4 ohm speakers.

In fact its smaller brother works fine with 8 ohm speakers too.

Impedance peaks can be dealt with by Zobel networks if the designer of the speaker was expecting the peak to reduce the output from the amplifier.
Zu Soul superply, 16ohm, 101db efficiency. I haven't heard them but I have other 12ohm Zu speakers which I like.
Duke, I will be at RMAF in October. what will you be driving your speakers with?

Vandersteen 5A loudspeaker design has an even Imp load as well as (Hi passed Bi Amp)which takes the burden off the tube amp on the lowest bass with its own self contained internal bass amp and features adjustable Room compensation.
This gives us the tightest full range bass imaginable while allowing tube amps to recover faster last longer and sing.
Will work extremely well with these amps and there size is about the same or smaller as when you have.
